INTRODUCTION
FEATURES
The 41 05 Computer Display Terminal is an excellent tool for displaying color
graphics and text. The following information describes some of its features.
Hjgh-Quality Color Graphics
• A 64-Color Palette — The 41 05 contains a palette of 64 colors to choose from.
You can display graphics in up to eight colors, and at the same time, you can
display text in up to eight additional colors.
• Fill Patterns — The terminal also contains several dozen predefined fill patterns
to simulate textures and additional colors.
• Interactive Color Interface — This feature allows you to select and change colors
on the screen and immediately see the results of your color selections.
• High Resolution — The 4105 features 480x360 pixel (dot) resolution on a
1 3-inch color display screen.
• Large Addressable Space — A 4096x4096 internal coordinate system provides
over 16 million addressable points.
• Pixel Operations — These commands give the programmer control of individual
pixels on the screen.
Graphics and Text
• Dual Purpose Display — You can display both graphics and text on the screen
at the same time. The graphics area displays both color graphics and text. The
dialog area holds text — your conversations with the computer and your com-
mands to the terminal.
• Independent Operation — Since it is both a graphics display terminal and a full
alphanumeric editing terminal, you can edit text in the dialog area without dis-
turbing the graphics area. The dialog bacl<ground can even be made transpar-
ent, allowing graphics to show through as though the dialog text were printed on
a pane of clear glass in front of the graphics.
• Two Text Formats — The dialog area displays text in full 80-column format or in a
special 132-column format. In both formats you can scroll text vertically; in 132-
column format, you can also scroll text horizontally to view all parts of the dialog
area.
Graphics Support and Terminal Configuration
• TEK mode — This command set supports software that uses Tektronix 41 00-
style and 401 0-style escape sequences. Programs written for other Tektronix
41 00 and 41 1 Series terminals can run on a 41 05 with minimal modification;
many will run unmodified.
• Setup — Using Setup you can configure the terminal's operating characteristics
by entering English-style Setup commands from the keyboard.
4105 OPERATORS 1-3
INTRODUCTION
Screen Editor Support
• ANSI and EDIT mode — Both of these command sets support ANSI standard
X3. 64-compatible screen editors that are commonly found on host systems
(similar to DEC VT1 00-style editors).
• VT52 mode — This command set supports DEC VT52-style screen editors.
• Color, an added dimension — When dialog area color is used in these editing
modes, it enhances the visual impact and adds another facet to the information
that can be presented.
Copier Support
• Color Copier Support — The terminal's copying capabilities let you make high-
quality color graphics copies using the Tektronix 4691 , 4692, and 4695 Color
Graphics Copiers.
• Monochrome Graphics Printer Support — The terminal can make fast mono-
chrome graphics copies using the Tektronix 4644 Dot Matrix Copier, the
Hewlett-Packard ThinkJet, or other printers that use Epson-style graphics.
• Text Printer Support — You can connect a dot matrix printer that uses a
Centronics-style parallel interface.
• Data Logging — You can use the AUTOPRINT command to cause dialog
between the terminal and host to be written automatically on an attached
printer.
Security
• Answerback — Application programs can control security with the answerback
feature: the terminal can be programmed to transmit a unique answerback
string when it receives the ENQUIRY command.
Verification Programs
• Self Test — This is a built-in program that automatically checks the terminal
each time you turn it on. In case of a power-up malfunction, the Self Test pro-
gram identifies the defective module.
• Extended Self Test — This program is also built into the terminal. It allows you to
perform many verification procedures from the keyboard.
1-4 4105 OPERATORS
INTRODUCTION
Special Features
• Nonvolatile Memory — You can save many of the terminal's settings in nonvola-
tile memory. The terminal remembers these settings even when it is turned off.
Then, when you turn it on again, the settings are just as you left them.
• Automatic Screen Dimming — If there is no terminal activity for five minutes, the
screen automatically dims to prolong the life of the display surface. Press any
key to restore the display intensity (the Shift l<ey is a good choice, since it does
not disturb the display).
• ROM Updates — You can install terminal ROM updates through an access
panel on the rear of the display unit.
• Local Graphics Processing — You can connect your 41 05 terminal to a 41 70
Local Graphics Processing Unit for graphics processing and offline storage.
The 41 70 works like a host computer by providing the processing power you
need to write, edit, compile, link, and debug graphics programs.

GETTING ACQUAINTED
WITH YOUR TERMINAL
Section 2
GETTING ACQUAINTED WITH YOUR TERMINAL
This section will help you learn to use your 41 05 Computer Display Terminal quickly
and easily You'll accomplish this by doing three exercises that demonstrate some
basic operations that can be performed on the terminal.
Your terminal will normally be connected to a computer that runs a graphics pro-
gram. In these exercises, you will be doing some of the same things a computer
graphics program would do, except you will be doing them manually from the
terminal keyboard. The terminal does not need to be connected to a computer to
run these exercises.
Try to complete the exercises in a single session, since each exercise assumes that
the terminal is just as you left it at the end of the previous exercise. It will probably
take you about an hour to do all three exercises.
Here's what you can expect to learn as you go through the exercises:
• Exercise 1 teaches you to how to enter commands. You will use simple com-
mands to get information from the terminal and change text colors.
• Exercise 2 shows you how to create color graphics on your terminal screen.
• Exercise 3 introduces you to the terminal's Interactive Color Interface by show-
ing you how to change the colors of the graphics you created in Exercise 2.
Before you go on, check to see if the terminal is ready to use. The terminal's power
cord should be plugged into a power outlet with the correct voltage, and the key-
board cable should be plugged into the keyboard connector on the rear of the
terminal. (If you need more information, refer to the Installation Instructions in
Appendix A.)
One feature of the terminal you should know about before you start the exercises is
the automatic screen dimming feature. If there is no terminal activity for five min-
utes, the screen automatically dims to prolong the life of the display surface. To
return the screen to normal brightness, press any key (we suggest the Shift key
because it doesn't disturb the display).
4105 OPERATORS 2-1
GETTING ACQUAINTED
EXERCISE 1 : ENTERING COMMANDS
Before you start entering commands, you need to make sure the terminal is ready
to receive your commands. You do this by turning the terminal on and putting it in
Setup.
When the terminal is in Setup it is dedicated to receiving and executing Setup
commands that you enter from the keyboard. Any data coming down from the host
computer is temporarily stored, and the terminal delays processing that data until
you take it out of Setup.
Let's begin now by turning on the terminal:
Press the POWER button, which is located on the front of the terminal.
(Whenever you must do something in these exercises, the action you are to per-
form is printed in blue.)
A blinking cursor appears on the screen within a few seconds. If you don't see the
cursor, adjust the BRIGHTNESS knob, located just below the POWER button.
Several of the keys on the keyboard perform special functions when you press
them; these same keys perform different functions when you press and hold the
Shift key and then press them. One of these keys is the Setup key, which you will be
using next.
The Setup key is located in the top row of keys on the keyboard and is labeled
"Setup" at the bottom and "Cancel" at the top. When you press this key it puts the
terminal in Setup (or takes it out, if it was in Setup). When you press and hold Shift
and then press this key it performs the Cancel function.
Let's continue by putting the terminal in Setup:
Press the Setup key
Notice that the terminal displays an asterisk (*), immediately followed by the blink-
ing cursor, in the upper left corner of the screen. The asterisk is the Setup prompt,
and it tells you that the terminal is ready for your Setup commands. Next:
Press the Return key several times.
The Return key tells the terminal you have completed a command entry Notice that
each time you press Return, the cursor goes to a new line and prompts you for
another command by displaying another asterisk. Always press the Return key at
the end of your command entries.
Now, to make sure these exercises work as described, let's put the terminal in its
factory default state:
Enter the following command by typing it on the keyboard (you may use upper-
case or lowercase letters, and remember to press Return to terminate the
command):
FACTORY
2-2 41 05 OPERATORS
GETTING ACQUAINTED
The asterisk and the word F/\C7"Ofly disappear from the screen and only the blinl<-
ing cursor is left in the upper-left corner This command resets all of the terminal's
settings to their factory cfefau/f values and takes the terminal out of Setup. (Factory
defaults are settings that are predefined in the terminal's firmware before it is deliv-
ered to you.)
Since the FACTORY command takes the terminal out of Setup, put it back in Setup
to continue with the exercise. Go ahead and do that now:
Press the Setup key
WORKING IN THE DIALOG AREA
The dialog area is a portion of the screen that displays the dialog (interactive com-
munication) between you and the host computer. The dialog area also displays
your command entries to the terminal when it is in Setup.
You just used the dialog area when you entered the FACTORY command. Now let's
enter a few more commands in the dialog area so you can get comfortable with
entering commands and, at the same time, see how the commands affect the
terminal.
If you make a mistake while entering one of the commands in this exercise, press
the Rub Out key to move the cursor back and erase the error. If you have already
pressed the Return key to terminate the command when you notice the mistake,
enter the command again correctly
If the terminal displays an error message after you enter a command, don't worry
— it's probably just a simple mistake that can be easily corrected. Try entering the
command again. If there is still a problem, refer to Correcting Command Entry
Errors in Section 3.
Enter the following command:
STATUS DIALOG
The terminal displays the status (current settings) of all the commands that affect
the dialog area of the terminal. In this command, STATUS is the command name,
which describes the command's function — in this case, you want some status
information. The word DIALOG in this command is aparameter, which is a variable
that represents a choice between several options — in this case, you are asking for
status specifically about the dialog area.
Many of the characteristics of the dialog area can be changed to meet your current
needs. For example, you can increase or decrease its size — that is, the number of
displayed lines. You can also change the colors used to display text, which you
might want to do to highlight various elements or to provide better contrast
between color graphics and text.
4105 OPERATORS 2-3
GETTING ACQUAINTED
To illustrate how you can change colors in the dialog area, enter the following
commands:
DAINDEX 1,2,4
STATUS DIALOG
The first command changes the dialog area colors. Notice that the information
below the DAINDEX 1,2,4 command is in the new colors. Every displayed color is
identified by a specific number called a color index or simply Index (you'll learn
more about this in the next exercise.)
The second command gives you dialog area status just as it did before, but this
time the status is displayed in the new colors you just selected.
In this example, you used three color indices (1 , 2, and 4) as parameters in the
DAINDEX command to tell the terminal which colors to use in the dialog area.
You changed the dialog area to white characters (Index 1) in red character cells
(Index 2) on a blue bacl<ground (Index 4). (A character cell is the rectangular area
surrounding each character.) All new information in the dialog area will be dis-
played in these new colors.
At this point you may need to adjust the BRIGHTNESS l<nob for better viewing of
the new colors.
Before we go on, let's lool< as some general guidelines for entering Setup com-
mands. This information will be helpful as you do these exercises and anytime you
are entering Setup commands.
• Always end your command entry by pressing the Return l<ey
• You can enter a command in uppercase, lowercase, or mixed case letters. For
example, DAINDEX, daindex, and Daindex are all valid entries. (In this manual,
we always use uppercase letters in command names so you can easily distin-
guish them from the surrounding text.)
• You can shorten commands and parameters to their shortest unambiguous
form; for example, DAI is the same as DAINDEX, but DA is not acceptable
because several other commands start with the letters DA. (In this manual, we
always use the complete form of a command to avoid confusion.)
• You may use either a comma or a space to separate command parameters in
Setup. (In this manual, we always use a comma between parameters to mal<e
them easier to read.)
• You may omit one or more parameters from a command line if you want to use
the omitted default values for the parameters. For example, DAINDEX 1 is the
same as DAINDEX 1,0,0, since the default value when you omit these parame-
ters is 0. (The table of Setup commands in Section 4 shows the factory defaults
and omitted defaults for all the commands.)
• If you mal<e a mistake while entering a command, press the Rub Out l<ey to
move the cursor bacl< and erase the error, then enter the rest of the command
correctly (For more information, refer to Correcting Command Entry Errors in
Section 3.)

USING THE STATUS COMMAND
Take a look at the screen and locate the DAINDEX command in the status list.
Notice that its settings are 7,2,4 just as you set them in the last DAINDEX com-
mand. Any time you need to check the current settings of the dialog area, you can
use the STATUS DIALOG command as you just did. However, there are many other
commands whose status you may want to check, besides those listed under the
DIALOG heading.
Let's display a status list of all Setup commands. We'll do this by entering the
STATUS command without a parameter since the default parameter for STATUS is
ALL command names. Then we'll see how to scroll through the dialog area buffer
and how to change its size.
Enter the command:
STATUS
The entire list of commands, with their current settings, scrolls upward on the
screen. However, the scrolling process is probably too rapid for you to get useful
information. When the scrolling stops, locate the hexagonal Joydisk in the upper-
left corner of the keyboard. Then:
Press the bottom of the Joydisk to scroll some of the previous lines of text back
into view.
Notice that you can't scroll all the way back to the beginning of the status list. This
is because the complete list is too long to fit in the dialog area buffer. (The dialog
area buffer, or simply dialog buffer, stores the dialog whenever you enter com-
mands or communicate with the host.) After the dialog buffer fills up, the first
entries are forced out to make room for subsequent entries. Thus, the earliest parts
of the status list are lost.
You can use two different methods to prevent losing data In the dialog buffer. Let's
look at them both.
First, you can stop and start the display listing by using Ctrl-S and Ctrl-Q. Look at
the keyboard and find the Ctrl key To enter Ctrl-S or Ctrl-Q, press the Ctrl key and
hold it down while you press the S or key. Then:
Enter the STATUS command once again; but, after you press Return, quickly
press Ctrl-S to halt the listing of the commands. Try it now:
STATUS
To restart the display, press Ctrl-Q, but be prepared to halt it once again by
quickly pressing Ctrl-S.
Second, you can change the size of the dialog buffer. Using the DABUFFER com-
mand, you can increase the size of the dialog buffer so it will store more data, or
you can decrease it to store less. The size of the dialog buffer is specified as a
number of lines.
41 05 OPERATORS 2-5
GETTING ACQUAINTED
To increase the size of the dialog buffer to 1 00 lines, enter the following
command;
DABUFFER 100
The size of the dialog buffer is now 1 00 lines, so it will store the entire status list.
Next, fill the buffer with status information by entering:
STATUS
Since you increased the size of the dialog buffer, it stores the entire status list and
you can scroll through the whole list. Go ahead and try that now;
Use the Joydisk to scroll through the status list.
GETTING STATUS FOR SPECIFIC GROUPS OF COMMANDS
While you were scrolling through the status list you probably noticed that the com-
mands are displayed in groups. These groups are called clusters. Each cluster is a
functional group of commands listed under its cluster name.
You can get the status of all settings pertaining to a specific cluster by using the
STATUS command with the cluster name as its parameter. That is just what you did
when you entered the STATUS DIALOG command earlier.
You can also get the status of all commands starting with the same first few letters,
since most commands that share a similar function start with the same first two
letters. For example, if you want to know the status of all commands that begin with
HC (hard copy), you can use HC as the parameter.
Go ahead and try that now by entering the following command;
STATUS HC
You'll find the STATUS HC command useful for checking hard copy settings before
you make a copy of the screen. (Refer to Section 3 for information about making
copies).
In this exercise you have learned how to enter Setup commands to get status
information and change colors in the dialog area. In Exercise 2 you will learn how to
use Setup commands to create color images on the screen.

EXERCISE 2: CREATING COLOR GRAPHICS
Color graphics can be created either from your keyboard with the terminal in Setup
or from a host application program. This exercise demonstrates some of the things
you can do in Setup.
In Exercise 1 you entered commands in the dialog area and saw the results of your
commands in the dialog area. In this exercise you will enter commands in the dia-
log area that create color images in the graphics area, which is the area of the
screen used to display graphics.
PREPARING THE SCREEN FOR GRAPHICS
The graphics area covers the whole screen; however, the dialog area comes up in
front of the graphics area. You'll need to see your commands as you enter them in
the dialog area; at the same time, you'll want to see the graphics you are creating
in the graphics area. You can accomplish both of these goals by decreasing the
size of the dialog area so it covers only a small part of the screen.
Before we start creating graphics, let's change the colors of the dialog area to
mal<e a pleasing contrast with the graphics we're going to create. Then we'll
reduce the size of the dialog area so we can see more of the graphics on the
screen.
To accomplish this, enter the following commands:
DAINDEX 0,6,6
DALINES 5
This DAINDEX command causes the dialog area to display blacl< text (Index 0)
on a magenta bacl<ground (Index 6 for both the character cell and dialog area
background).
The DALINES command you just entered set the dialog area to five lines, so it now
covers less of the graphics area.
CREATING A GRAPHICS IMAGE
In working with graphics, we use the term panel as a graphics concept. In the 41 05
terminal, a panel is a closed polygon with one or more boundaries; examples are
triangles and rectangles. A panel normally is used to represent a single unit, such
as a floor plan or a circuit board element, within a complete graphics display You
will create several panels in this exercise.
Let's begin by creating a square blue panel, bordered with a white line. (If you
make any mistakes while entering the commands, refer to the next discussion —
Correcting Panel Definition Errors.)
4105 OPERATORS 2-7
GETTING ACQUAINTED
Enter the following sequence of commands exactly as shown:
FILLPATTERN -4
BEGINPANEL 500,1000,1
DRAW 2000,1000
DRAW 2000,2500
DRAW 500,2500
ENDPANEL
Your screen should now look like Figure 2-1 .
Figure 2-1 . Display of Filled Panel.
Here's what each of these commands did:
• FILLPATTERN selects a predefined pattern or color to fill the interior of each
panel you define. This particular command sets the fill pattern to -4, which
specifies Index 4 (blue).
• BEGINPANEL starts a panel definition. You specified the first corner of the
panel to be at the point with xy-coordi nates 500, 7000. The final parameter of 1
specifies that the border of the finished panel is displayed, rather than covered
up by the fill pattern.
• The three DRAW commands continue to outline the panel. DRAW 2000, 1000
draws a vector (line) from the first corner (500, 1000) to the point 2000,1000 on
your terminal screen. Each succeeding DRAW command draws a vector from
the current point to the new point specified by the xy-coordinates. (Refer to the
4705 Programmers Reference Manual for more information about the DRAW
command.)
• ENDPANEL closes the panel definition. It draws the last side of the panel, fills
the panel with blue, and outlines it. (Whenever you start a panel definition,
which you do by entering a BEGINPANEL command, you must also end that
panel definition by entering an ENDPANEL command.)

CORRECTING PANEL DEFINITION ERRORS
The following information is addressed specifically to handling errors you may
make while defining a panel. (For information about error handling in general, refer
to Section 3.)
When creating a panel, you might enter a command with parameters that are not
what you intended but that are acceptable to the terminal. If you notice that you
made such an error while entering this sequence of commands, and you have
already pressed the Return key you have three options:
• If the mistake is in the FILLPATTERN command, and this is the only command
you have entered, then simply reenter the command correctly The latest ver-
sion of a FILLPATTERN command overrides any previous versions.
• If the mistake is in the BEGINPANEL command or a DRAW command, and
you have not issued an ENDPANEL command, then go ahead and issue an
ENDPANEL command to close the panel. Then erase the graphics area —
press G Eras — and start over, beginning with the BEGINPANEL command.
• If you've already entered an ENDPANEL command, then you'll have to erase
the graphics area and start over. Press G Eras to erase the graphics area. Then
start over, beginning with the BEGINPANEL command.
CREATING A SECOND IMAGE
Now, let's draw a red star inside the blue box. We'll use the same sequence of
commands that we used for drawing the blue box since it is a typical command
sequence for building a panel, but this time we'll use different parameters.
Enter the following sequence of commands:
FILLPATTERN -2
BEGINPANEL 850,1250
DRAW 1250,2300
DRAW 1650,1250
DRAW 650,1900
DRAW 1850,1900
ENDPANEL
The display should now look like Figure 2-2 (next page). The middle of the star is
not filled with red because of the way we drew it — the boundary crosses itself so
that the middle isn't part of the panel. If we wanted the star to be completely filled
with red, we would have to draw around its outer edge.

ADJUSTING THE DIALOG AREA
You've seen that the graphics area covers the whole screen, and the dialog area is
displayed in front of the graphics area. The dialog area on your screen is currently
five lines. Suppose you want to see 22 lines of dialog at a time, but you don't want
the dialog area to cover up your graphics. Here's how you can do that:
Increase the size of the dialog area to 22 lines by entering;
DALINES 22
Notice that the dialog area now covers most of the graphics area. Next:
Enter the following commands:
DAINDEX 3,0,0
STATUS
As the status list scrolls up, notice that the graphics images show through the
dialog area, as though the dialog text lines were written on a pane of clear glass in
the foreground. The display should now look similar to Figure 2-4. The DAINDEX
3,0,0 command set the character color to Index 3 (green) and the character cell
and background colors to Index (transparent).

Figure 2-4. Display With Transparent Dialog Area
Sometimes you may want to see graphics without any dialog on the screen. For
example, you may need to make a copy of the graphics that is free of dialog text.
Here's an easy way to do that:
Press the Dialog key (located at the left end of the top row of keys).
The dialog area disappears and the complete graphics image is visible. If you were
going to make a copy of the graphics, you would make the copy next (Section 3
tells you how). Then, after the copy is done, you would make the dialog area reap-
pear by pressing the Dialog key again. Go ahead and do that now.
Press the Dialog key Then, set the dialog area back to five lines by entering:
DALINES 5
Without making any changes to what you have done, proceed to Exercise 3.
41 05 OPERATORS 2-11
GETTING ACQUAINTED
EXERCISE 3: USING THE SET COLOR FUNCTION
One way to change the color of an image on the screen is to change its index. You
have already done this several times. For example, the DAINDEX 1,2,4 command
you used in Exercise 1 changed the dialog area indices to Index 1 for characters,
Index 2 for character cells, and Index 4 for the bacl<ground. Index 1 is white, Index
2 is red, and Index 4 is blue; so, when you entered the DAINDEX 1,2,4 command,
the dialog area changed to white, red, and blue.
The Set Color function offers another way to change colors. It is different in that it
allows you to change the color definition of the color assigned to an index. For
example, you could use the Set Color function to change Index 2 from red to yel-
low. Then, every image that uses Index 2 would become yellow.
There are three ways to use the Set Color function to change a color definition. In
this exercise you will use all three ways so you'll be familiar with the advantages
and limitations of each one. Here's what you'll learn in this exercise:
• First, you'll learn how to change a color definition by changing its hue, lightness,
and saturation (HLS) values.
• Second, you'll learn how to use the color menu.
• Third, you'll learn how to change colors by changing the color map.
CHANGING HLS VALUES
The Set Color function is the Interactive Color Interface that allows you to change
color definitions. A color definition is the mixture of hue, lightness, and saturation
(HLS) values that define a particular color. (Refer to the Tektronix Color Standard in
Appendix G for an illustration of the HLS color coordinate system.)
In this first method you will change a color by changing its HLS values. To do this
you activate the Set Color function by pressing the Menu key which is located near
the center of the top row of keys on the keyboard.
After you press the Menu key you will see a flashing message on the screen that
says, "Press SEras key to erase screen and display current colors." Do not press
S Eras! If you do it will erase all the graphics you have drawn, and you will have to
start over at the beginning of Exercise 2. Go ahead now and activate the Set Color
function:
Press the Menu key
Do not press S Eras.
This selects the Set Color function and displays a banner across the bottom of the
screen. Next:
Press the upper-right part of the Joydisk.
The "Press SEras . . ." message disappears and the entire Set Color banner is now
visible as shown in Figure 2-5. At the same time, a pair of crosshairs appear in the
lower-left portion of the screen. This is the crossrta/r cursor, which you'll use while
working with the Set Color function. The crosshairs are a horizontal line and a
vertical line that intersect, and their intersection is the actual cursor.

You can use the Joydisk to move the crosshairs around on the screen and select
items to be changed. To select an item, you place the intersection of the crosshairs
over it. Go ahead and try it now:
Press and hold down different sides of the the Joydisk to see how it controls the
motion of the crosshairs.
Then, try holding down the Shift key while you press the Joydisk.
Notice that using the Shift key along with the Joydisk slows down the motion of the
crosshairs for more precise control.
Next, let's use the crosshairs to select an item on the screen.
Move the crosshair cursor to the blue portion of the box with the star
Take a few moments to examine the banner at the bottom of the screen. Notice the
word "Graphics" at the left end of the banner This indicates that the crosshairs are
in the graphics area. Below this is a small square of blue and the label "index 4."
The small blue square is a sample of the color the crosshairs are on, and the label
tells you it is Index 4.
The rest of the banner gives you information about the particular color index the
crosshair cursor is on — in this case. Index 4. Recall that the terminal defines each
color in terms of HLS values, and you can change a color by changing these
values. The boxes labeled hue, lightness, and saturation show the values for the
color the cursor is on. The labels F1 , F2, and F3 above the boxes indicate which
key to press to change each value. Let's try changing the hue:
Press F1 (hue) five or six times.
Notice that the color of the box changes from blue to magenta and the hue value
changes by 1 0° each time you press and release the key This is how you select a
hue value.

GETTING ACQUAINTED
Let's continue changing the hue:
Press and hold F1 .
The hue value continues to increase by 10° increments and wraps around to zero
after it passes 350°. You can watch the box on the screen go through the full range
of hues in concert with the change in hue values. Now, try this:
Press Shift-FI (hold down the Shift l<ey and press F1 ).
Note that pressing F1 increases the hue setting and pressing Shift-FI decreases
the hue setting. You can change the lightness and saturation values in a similar
fashion with the F2 and F3 Keys.
Table 2-1 shows what each Set Color function key does when you press it.

When you started this exercise the box on the screen was blue (hue 0°, lightness
50%, and saturation 1 00%). Let's change the box to brown by changing Index 4 to
HLS values of 150,30,100:
UseFI to set the hue to 150°.
Use F2 to change the lightness to 30%.
Leave the saturation at 1 00%.
You have just changed the color definition of Index 4 in the graphics area to brown,
so your terminal screen should now look like Figure 2-6.

At this point you have several options. Among them, you could: (1) press F4 to
restore the original color, (2) move the crosshairs to another color and modify it, or
(3) press the Menu key to exit from the Set Color function, which saves any colors
you changed. Let's take the third option:
Press the Menu key
This causes the terminal to exit from the Set Color function and save brown (HLS
1 50,30,1 00) as the color definition assigned to Index 4. So, whenever you specify
Index 4, it will be brown. This color definition is saved until you turn off the terminal
or modify the colors again.
USING THE COLOR MENU
Another way to change a color is to use the F5 key while in the Set Color function.
This key displays a menu of predefined colors that you can select by moving the
crosshairs to the name of the desired color. Let's try it now:
Press the Menu key
Do not press S Eras.
This activates the Set Color function just as it did before.
Move the crosshairs to the red star.
Press the F5 key and hold it down.
A menu of nine color names is displayed beside the crosshairs as shown in Figure
2-7a (next page), and the following message appears at the top of the banner:
"Hold menu key down and place crosshairs over the item." The "menu key"
referred to in this message is the Set Color function's color menu key — which is

Notice that the color of the star changes to the color selected by the cursor. Next:
Move the cursor to the color name "orange," as shown In Figure 2-7b. Then,
release the Joydisk and the F5 key.
The star remains orange because that is the color name the cursor was on when
you released F5. You have just used the color menu to change the color definition

Now let's return the star to its original color and exit the Set Color function:
Press F4.
Press the Menu key (the key labeled Menu, not F5).
In the first method, you learned how to change the color of an object in the graphics
area by changing the HLS values of its color index. In this method, you learned to
use the color menu to change objects in the graphics area to one of nine prede-
fined colors. Now let's go on to the third method and see how to change colors by
modifying the color map.
USING THE COLOR MAP
This method allows you to modify the color map, which is another way to assign
colors definitions (HLS values) to indices. The 41 05 terminal has eight predefined
color definitions for the dialog area and eight for the graphics area. It assigns each
of these color definitions to a color index and displays them on the color map.
To use this method you must erase the screen. But first, let's activate the Set Color
function just as we did in the previous two methods:
Press the Menu key
Do not move the crosshairs.
In the first two methods you moved the crosshairs immediately after activating the
Set Color function; but in this method, you start by erasing the screen to display the
color map. Go ahead and do that now:
Press the S Eras key.
The display shown in Figure 2-8 appears. This color map shows the eight graphics
indices and the eight dialog indices along with the HLS values and color samples
for each index.

The rest of this method uses the same procedures you have already learned. Let's
change some of the colors definitions just to make sure you're familiar with the
procedures. As you're selecting colors to change, remember that you can slow
down the speed of the crosshairs by pressing Shift while you press the Joydisk.
Go ahead now and change some color definitions by following these steps:
1 . Move the crosshair cursor to the square sample of Index 3 in the DIALOG
INDICES area in the lower part of the screen.
2. Use F1 to change the hue to 1 30° (red).
3. Move the cursor to the square sample of Index 2 in the GRAPHIC INDICES in
the upper portion of the screen.
4. Use F1 to change the hue value to 1 80° (yellow).
5. Move the crosshairs to Index 4 in the GRAPHIC INDICES.
6. Press F5 to display the color menu, and then use the cursor to select "olive"
for Index 4.
You may now do any of the following:
• Press Menu to exit the Set Color function, which automatically saves the new
colors you just defined. The new HLS values of the colors you changed are in
effect for any new graphics or dialog you create, and these new color definitions
are saved until the power is turned off.
• Without moving the crosshairs, press F4 to restore (to its previous color defini-
tion) the color you just changed.
• Press Shift-F4 to restore all colors to the HLS values they had when you acti-
vated the Set Color function.
How a given color is perceived depends on a number of factors, including how
much of the color is displayed, and which colors surround it. It's wise to keep these
considerations in mind when you define colors.

Section 3
PROCEDURES FOR ROUTINE TASKS
This section provides reference information that you can use like recipes in a cool<-
book. To find the information you need, just locate the heading that covers the
subject and then follow the step-by-step procedures. These procedures are divided
into three main categories: Using Setup Commands, Copying the Display, and
Creating Macros.
USING SETUP COMMANDS
When the terminal is in Setup it responds to commands you enter from the key-
board; it does not display any information sent by the host, and you cannot send
information to the host.
ENTERING COMMANDS
To enter a command, put the terminal in Setup by pressing the Setup key. Then,
enter the command by typing it on the keyboard. (For more details about entering
commands, refer to the Getting Acquainted exercises in Section 2.)
Most Setup command entries consist of two parts:
• The command name — the part of the command that specifies the operation
you want the terminal to perform, or the type of setting you want to change.
• One or more parameters — variable entries that contain data or a choice
between options for the command. A parameter can be a keyword, such as YES
or NO, or an integer value such as 1, 2, or 3. (Refer to Section 4 for the parame-
ter functions for each Setup command).
Some Setup commands perform a particular action in the terminal, like drawing a
line. Other Setup commands establish one of the terminal's settings, like the color
of text. When all the settings have been established they compose the terminal's
operating characteristics, that is, how the terminal responds to commands and
displays information.
4105 OPERATORS 3-1
PROCEDURES
Here's an example of a typical Setup command:
DAINDEX 1,2,4
DAINDEX Is the command name — its function is to set the color indices of the
dialog area. 1, 2, and 4 are parameter values. Each parameter in this command is a
number that corresponds to a specific color index.
To specify more than one parameter in a command, use one or more spaces or a
comma to separate the parameters. For example, the following commands both
correctly specify the same settings:
DAINDEX 0,3,3
DAINDEX 3 3
In this manual we always use commas to separate parameters so it will be easy to
distinguish each individual parameter
Each time you press the Return key to terminate a command, the terminal exe-
cutes the command, goes to a new line, and displays an asterisk to prompt you for
the next command. When you finish entering Setup commands, press the Setup
key to take the terminal out of Setup and resume communication with the host
computer or whatever you were doing.
CORRECTING COMMAND ENTRY ERRORS
If you notice a mistake before you press the Return key, press the Rub Out key to
back up and erase the error Alternately, enter Ctrl-X (hold down the Ctrl key and
press X) to erase the entire command line, and then reenter it.
If you make a mistake and you've already pressed the Return key just reenter the
command correctly For example, if you discover that you entered the wrong
parameters for a command, simply enter the command again with the correct
parameters. The last entry overrides any previous entry for the same command
(unless it is a DRAW or BEGINPANEL command, in which case refer to Correcting
Panel Definition Errors in Section 2).
Understanding Error Messages
When you enter a Setup command incorrectly the terminal displays an error
message that helps you to identify the type of error. A string of asterisks displayed
below the incorrect portion of the command further helps you to locate the error
For example, suppose you want to change the size of the dialog area and you
accidentally enter DAI-ANES instead of DALINES. The terminal would display the
following error message;
*DALANES 6
4: :(c * :«; ;|e :(; 4c
» Terminal Detects Error : Nonexistent Command
*
3-2 41 05 OPERATORS
PROCEDURES
If you make an error entering the parameters of a command, tfie terminal displays
the asterisks below the parameter that caused the error. For example, let's say you
enter a DALINES command with two parameters instead of one. DALINES requires
only one parameter, so the error message appears like this:
*DALINES 20,8
**
» Terminal Detects Error : Extraneous Input
*
The message tells you that you entered too many parameter values for the com-
mand, and the asterisks locate the extraneous parameter entries (,8).
Now, suppose you accidentally enter a parameter value that is out of the range for
the command. For example, assume you want to set the size of the dialog area to
20 lines, and you accidentally entered 200 for the parameter value instead of 20.
The following error message would appear:
*DALINES 200
» Terminal Detects Error LL1 1 :
» Invalid Value in Parameter 1 of (ESC)(L)(L) Command.
In this case, the terminal displays an error code of LL1 1 instead of asterisks to
identify the parameter error. For a list and explanation of all possible error codes for
command entries, refer to the Error Codes Appendix in the 4705 Programmers
Reference Manual.
GETTING HELP FOR SETUP COMMANDS
The terminal can display a one-line help message for each Setup command. These
messages can help you recall names of commands and the types of parameters for
commands. The HELP command has several variations:
• To display the help message for a specific Setup command, enter HE/.P followed
by the command name. For example:
HELP FILLPATTERN
• You can also display the help message for a specific command, by entering just
enough characters to uniquely identify the command. For example:
HELP FIL
• To display all help messages, enter:
HELP
NOTE
The complete help message is rather lengthy. You can use Ctrl-S to
temporarily stop scrolling of the help message, and Ctrl-Q to resume
scrolling.
41 05 OPERATORS 3-3
PROCEDURES
• To display help messages for all commands that begin with the same two letters,
enter the HELP command followed by the first two letters of the commands. For
example:
HELP DA
• To display messages for related commands, enter one of the cluster names that
appear in the complete help message. (Cluster names identify specific catego-
ries of commands that are grouped together.) For example:
HELP KEYBOARD
SAVING PARAMETER VALUES
Nonvolatile commands are Setup commands whose parameters you can save in
the terminal's nonvolatile memory The saved settings are then automatically in
effect whenever you turn on the terminal or issue a RESET command.
During installation, you usually save all the communications settings after you
establish the communications link between the terminal and the host computer.
You can save additional nonvolatile commands during installation or at some later
date. To save commands in nonvolatile memory, enter an NVSAVE command after
one or more Setup commands. For example, an NVSAVE command at the end of
the following command sequence would store the three command parameters
above it in nonvolatile memory:
DABUFFER 100
DALINES 5
DAINDEX 0,3,3
NVSAVE
The settings established by the three saved commands would be in effect when-
ever you turn on the terminal or issue a RESET command. However, you can tem-
porarily change the settings of any of them by entering the same command with
different parameters. For example, assume you want to temporarily increase the
size of the dialog area buffer to 1 20 lines, but do not want to save it. Simply enter
the command:
DABUFFER 120
The size of the dialog area buffer will be 1 20 lines until you: (1 ) change it again with
another DABUFFER command, (2) turn the terminal off and on again, (3) issue a
RESET command, or (4) issue a FACTORY command.
Whenever you issue an NVSAVE command, it saves the settings of all commands
that can be saved in nonvolatile and have changed since the last NVSAVE. It also
saves any nonvolatile macros that have been defined since the last NVSAVE.

PROCEDURES
S CAUTION i
After you enter an NVSAVE command, wait for the * to appear before
taking any furttier action. If you turn offer reset ttie terminal wtiile
NVSAVE is working, all parameters will be reset to their factory default
values.
The terminal's nonvolatile memory can be changed approximately 1 0,000 times
with the NVSAVE command. This should be sufficient for many years of normal
terminal operation. However, to prolong the life of the memory it's best to use
NVSAVE only when necessary
There are many settings that cannot be saved with an NVSAVE command. Turning
the terminal off and on or resetting it causes these commands to return to their
factory default values. Refer to Section 4 to see which commands have parameters
that can be saved in nonvolatile memory or refer to the 4705 Programmers Refer-
ence Manual for more information.
RETURNING TO DEFAULT SETTINGS
You can use the FACTORY and RESET commands to restore terminal settings to
their default values. Here are a few considerations to keep in mind when using
these commands:
• When you issue a FACTORY command, all settings revert to their factory
default values.
• When you issue a RESET command, the terminal returns to its power-up condi-
tion, which is a combination of the factory default settings and the settings that
have been saved in nonvolatile memory (The power-up condition includes any
macros that were defined with the NVDEFINE or NVLEARN command.)
• When you enter a FACTORY command and follow it immediately with an
NVSAVE command, all commands — both unsaved command settings and
those stored in nonvolatile memory — revert to their factory default settings.

PROCEDURES
COPYING THE DISPLAY
The terminal can be connected to a variety of copy devices, and it can copy text,
graphics, or both. Your copying capabilities depend on the copier or printer
attached to the terminal.
The following procedures show you how to make graphics and dialog area copies
on both color and monochrome copiers. (If you are using a host program that
selects copier attributes or initiates copies for you, then you should follow the host
program's procedure instead.)
MAKING COPIES ON A COLOR COPIER
If you are using a Tektronix 4691 , 4692, or 4695 Color Graphics Copier, you can
make both graphics copies and dialog copies. Although there are a number of
commands you can use to control copies made on 4691 and 4692 Copiers, the
following procedure uses only those commands that work on the 4695 as well. See
Controlling Copies Made on the 4691 and 4692 Copier, for information on the fea-
tures you can control on a 4691 or 4692.
To make a copy, follow these steps:
1 . Be sure the copier is connected and powered up.
2. Put the terminal in Setup.
3. Tell the terminal which copier or printer is connected to the terminal by enter-
ing the following command:
HCINTERFACE 2 This says you are using a Tektronix 4691, 4692, or
4695 Color Graphics Copier.
You only need to enter this command once during a session, no matter how
many copies you make afterwards. Also, 2 is the factory default parameter for
the HCINTERFACE command, so you only need to enter this command if it has
been changed from the default value.
4. Display the information you want to copy
5. Make the copy by pressing one of the following keys or key combinations:
• To copy the entire screen (text and graphics), press the S Copy key This
makes a copy with black and white reversed so that black (no color) areas
on the display appear white on the copy This method saves black ink, and
is how you normally print text.
• To copy the entire screen, without reversing black and white, hold down the
Ctrl key and press the S Copy key
• To copy the graphics only, first press the Dialog key to make any text in the
dialog area invisible. Then, press the S Copy key You can immediately
press the Dialog key again to redisplay text. If the dialog area is enabled
(DAENABLE YES), you can resume sending commands to the host com-
puter during the copy operation.

PROCEDURES
• To copy the dialog area buffer only, press the D Copy key (Also see Step 6.)
i » To make multiple copies of the same display, just press the appropriate key
(S Copy or D Copy) once for each of the copies you need. For example, to
I — • make four copies of the entire screen display, press the S Copy key four
times.
6. If you need to communicate with the host computer while a dialog copy Is in
progress, refer to Communicating With the Host During a Copy Operation, later
. — In this discussion.
— Setting the Image Size
The HCSIZE command lets you select the size of the copied Image on a Tektronix
4695 Color Copier (only dialog area copies are affected if you are using a 4691 or
4692 Copier). This command selects either normal or small copies. Small-size
screen copies are one-half normal size; small dialog area copies are slightly larger
than one-half normal size.
— One benefit of the small copy is speed; since a smaller copy area Is used, the copy
takes less time. A normal copy provides greater resolution and color range but
takes longer.
The small copy also allows you to copy 132 columns on the same line. By contrast,
, In a normal copy of text with a 1 32-character line, the first 80 characters appear on
one line and the remaining 52 characters wrap to the next line.
■ — Here's how to set the copy size:
• To select the small copy size, enter:
HCSIZE 1
•To produce the normal copy size, enter:
HCSIZE
4105 OPERATORS 3-7
PROCEDURES
Controlling Copies on the 4691 and 4692
With the 4691 and 4692 Color Graphics Copiers, you can use Setup commands to
specify various settings for image position and quality.
Make sure the copier is connected to the terminal's COPIER port before you enter
the commands. Then, perform the following steps:
1 . Put the terminal in Setup (if it isn't already).
2. Select the copier type by entering:
HCINTERFACE 2
3. Select the dot density of the copy:
• To produce higher density but slower copies, enter:
HCDENSITY HIGH
• To produce lower density but faster copies, enter:
HCDENSITY LOW
NOTE
When you select high density, the copied image will be slightly smaller
than the low-density copy
4. For the 4692 Copier only you can choose how many times (from one to four)
the copier overwrites the image in a single copy Writing the same image sev-
eral times in the same copy adds a heavier concentration of inl<. You'll find this
useful when you create transparencies, since it produces more intense colors
rather than pastel shades.
Here's an example that paints the same image twice:
HCREPAINT 2
5. Position the image on the page using one of these steps:
• To align the long axis of the image on the long axis of the paper, enter:
HCORIENT HORIZONTAL
• To align long axis of the image on the short axis of the paper, enter one of
the following:
HCORIENT VTOP
HCORIENT VCENTER
HCORIENT VBOTTOM
(The three preceding commands place the image at the top, center, or
bottom of the paper.)
NOTE
When you specify any HCORIENT setting other than HORIZONTAL (the
factory default), the copy Is automatically reduced to fit the Image to the
narrower width of the paper

Then you can issue an NVSAVE command to save the key definitions in nonvolatile
memory
MAKING COPIES ON A MONOCHROME GRAPHICS PRINTER
You can make monochrome copies if you are using a Tektronix 4644 Dot Matrix
Printer, a Hewlett-Packard ThinkJet, or another printer that uses Epson-style
graphics. You should use the same steps as you do for making color copies, but
there are two additional commands that affect monochrome printers only
Here are the differences:
• When you tell the terminal which copier or printer is connected to the terminal,
enter one of the following commands:
HCINTERFACE 3 This says you are using a Tektronix 4644 Dot IVIatrix
Printer or another printer with Epson-style graphics.
HCINTERFACE 4 This says you are using a Hewlett-Packard ThinkJet
printer.
4105 OPERATORS 3-9
PROCEDURES
• Your terminal usually sends a Carriage Return/Line Feed combination at the
end of each line sent to a printer. Depending on the switch settings on your
printer, the printer may expect just a Carriage Return instead. If your terminal
sends the wrong line endings for the printer, it can cause one of two problems:
• If the printer expects Line Feeds and the terminal doesn't send any all your
lines of text or graphics will print on the same line — resulting in one unread-
able black line.
• If the printer expects just Carriage Returns and the terminal sends Line
Feeds, the copies you make will have an extra blank line following each line
of characters (that is, single-spaced text will be double-spaced, and graphics
will have an extra blank line after each printed line).
If the printer expects just a Carriage Return at the end of each line, enter the
following command:
HCMONOCHROME
If the printer expects a Line Feed/Carriage Return combination at the end of
each line, enter the following command (this is the default and is appropriate in
most cases):
HCMONOCHROME 1
• On a monochrome graphics copier, the background (Index 0) doesn't print and
the other colors (Indices 1 through 7) print as black. If this makes your copy hard
to read, you can use the HCMAP command to suppress the printing of selected
indices. For example to suppress printing of Indices 5, 6, and 7, enter:
HCMAP 5,0,6,0,7,0
MAKING DIALOG COPIES ON A CENTRONICS-STYLE PRINTER
If you have a Centronics-style printer without graphics capability you may still be
able to make copies of text in the dialog area. You use the same steps as you do in
making monochrome copies, with the following exceptions:
• When you tell the terminal which copier or printer is connected to the terminal,
enter:
HCINTERFACE This says you are using a Centronics-style printer.
• Since you can only make dialog copies, the only valid key to press for a copy is
the D Copy key (if you press S Copy the output the terminal sends will be mean-
ingless to your printer.)
• Since you can't make graphics copies, don't use the HCMAP command.
3-10 4105 OPERATORS
PROCEDURES
COPYING SEQUENTIAL PAGES OF DIALOG
When you want to copy more than one page of the dialog area buffer, issue
the HCDAATTRIBUTES command before pressing the D Copy l<ey The
HCDAATTRIBUTES command specifies the number of pages to be copied, the
starting page to begin the copy, and when to begin a new page.
The following examples show how the HCDAATTRIBUTES command worl<s:
• To copy the three most recent pages, without any page breal<s, enter:
HCDAATTRIBUTES 3,2,0
In this example, the first parameter (3) is the page count. The second parameter
(2) causes the page count to start from the bottom (most recent) line of the
dialog area buffer. The third parameter (0) causes a new page to begin every 66
lines (60 lines of text, plus 3 lines each at the top and bottom of a page).
• To copy the five oldest pages and start a new page at every Form Feed charac-
ter, enter:
HCDAATTRIBUTES 5,1,2
In this example, the first parameter (5) is the page count. The second parameter
(7) causes the page count to start from the top line of the dialog area buffer. The
third parameter (2) causes a new page to begin only when a Form Feed
appears.
• To copy two pages starting from the first line displayed in the dialog area buffer
and to start a new page every 60 lines or wherever a Form Feed occurs, enter:
HCDAATTRIBUTES 2,0,1
In this example, the first parameter (2) is the page count. The second parameter
(0) causes the page count to start from the first line of the screen. The third
parameter (7) causes a new page to begin every 60 lines or wherever a Form
Feed occurs.
Keep in mind that the first setting (the number of pages) and the last setting
(whether Form Feeds are ignored) interact with each other. For example, if the
dialog area buffer begins with four Form Feeds, and you specify that the printer
should print four pages, paging only at Form Feeds, the copier operation produces
four blanl< pages.
As another example, assume you set the terminal to page only on Form Feeds and
you set the number of pages to 1 . If there are no Form Feeds in the text, the entire
dialog area buffer will be copied without page breaks, regardless of the number of
lines.

If you need to communicate with the host computer while a dialog copy is in pro- ]
gress, you can disable the dialog area before making the copy and then work in the
graphics area. Assuming the text you want to copy is already in the dialog area,
follow these steps:
1. Put the terminal in Setup.
2. Disable the dialog area by entering:
DAENABLE NO
(This command will appear at the end of your copy, since you are writing it
in the dialog area and then making a dialog copy)
3. Press the Dialog key to make the dialog area invisible.
4. Press the D Copy key
5. Press the Setup key to leave Setup so you can resume working with the host in
the graphics area.
6. Enable the dialog area, if needed, when the copy is complete.
STOPPING A COPY OPERATION

PROCEDURES
CREATING MACROS
A macro is a sequence of characters stored as a single group. Macros provide a
shortcut to entering commands and text that you use frequently. When you have to
enter a particular set of commands or block of text repeatedly, you can create a
macro that contains the commands or text you want. The terminal saves the macro
in its memory and then the macro is available for you to use whenever you need it.
You typically create a macro by programming a key to generate the sequence of
characters that compose the particular commands or text. You recall the sequence
of characters by pressing the programmed key All keys except Shift, Ctrl, and
Caps Lock can be programmed.
Normally, pressing a key generates the character labeled on the key However, after
you program a key with a macro, pressing the key invokes the macro you've
defined. This process is called expanding the macro — that is, when you press the
programmed key you expand the macro.
NOTE
Avoid programming l<eys tliat you normally use to enter commands. For
example, if you program the Return key, you cannot use it to terminate
a command.
The following discussion provides an overview of the methods for creating macros.
It then goes through a detailed example that shows how to create, use, and delete
macros.
USING MACRO NUMBERS
Macros are identified by macro numbers that correspond to keys on the keyboard
(including their Shifted, Ctrl, and Ctrl-Shifted versions). Although valid macro num-
bers are -150 through 32767, only macros with numbers between -150 and 143
are assigned to keys on the keyboard. Refer the macro key charts in Appendix C
for more information.
SELECTING LOCAL OR HOST MACROS
Normally when you press a programmed key the macro defined for that key is sent
to the host computer — just as if you had entered that sequence of characters on
the keyboard. However, you might want a macro to display characters just on the
screen, or want the macro to be interpreted as a sequence of commands to the
terminal. In these cases, you do not want the macro sent to the host, but you do
want it executed by the terminal.
To construct a macro to be executed locally at the terminal, you must include the
key-execute character in the macro. The default key-execute character is "l, which
you type as Ctrl-P. You can use the KEYEXCHAR command to change it to a differ-
ent character.
4105 OPERATORS 3-13
PROCEDURES
The key-execute character acts like a switch that sends the contents of the macro
to the terminal or to the host. The first time the key-execute character appears in
the macro, it switches to the terminal. The next time it appears in the macro, it
switches back to the host.
If you want to include commands to the terminal in a macro, you can use Setup
commands. However, this requires the terminal to be in Setup before you press the
programmed key Therefore, you normally should use the l70Sf synfaxform of com-
mands. (Refer to the 4705 Programmers Reference Mariual for an explanation of
host syntax). If you use host syntax commands in a macro, the terminal must not be
in Setup when you press the programmed key
USING MACRO COMMANDS
There are four different commands you can use to create a macro:
• DEFINE lets you define a macro for any key or macro number (including macros
144 and up, which do not correspond to any keys). A macro created with
DEFINE is lost when you turn off the terminal or reset it, or when you issue a
FACTORY command. A macro definition using DEFINE usually is performed by
the host, so it is not further described in this section. For more information, refer
to the 4105 Programmers Reference Manual.
• NVDEFINE works just like DEFINE, except the macro can be saved in nonvola-
tile memory by issuing NVSAVE. You can turn the terminal off and the macro will
still be defined when you turn it on again. Macro definition with NVDEFINE usu-
ally is performed from the host and is not further described in this section. For
more information, refer to the 4705 Programmers Reference l^anual.
• LEARN lets you program keys from the keyboard for local use. When you enter
the LEARN command, the terminal prompts you for your subsequent entries to
define the macro. Macros defined with LEARN are lost when the terminal is
turned off or reset, or when you issue a FACTORY command.
• NVLEARN works like LEARN, but NVLEARN macros can be saved in nonvola-
tile memory by issuing NVSAVE.
CAUTION
A macro created by NVLEARN or NVDEFINE is not automatically saved
in nonvolatile memory. If you want to save tfie macro, you must enter
an NVSAVE command before turning off tfie power, issuing a RESET
command, or issuing a FACTORY command. A limited amount of mem-
ory is available to save nonvolatile macros.
3-14 4105 OPERATORS
PROCEDURES
MACRO EXAMPLES
To see how LEARN and NVLEARN work, let's use NVLEARN to program the F5
key. For our example, let's assume you frequently need to change the setting of the
HCSIZE command, and you want to program two keys, one with the smaller size
and one with the larger size. Here's how to set up the macro that selects the
smaller size:
1. Put the terminal in Setup.
2. To start the programming process for a nonvolatile macro, enter this
command:
NVLEARN
The terminal displays the following prompt:
Press the key to be defined :
3. Press the F5 function key located in the top-right row of keys. The screen
displays the number 732 (the macro number for the F5 key) after the colon,
and the following message appears on the next line:
Enter definition. (F1 terminates definition, F2 deletes last character)
4. Now you can enter the contents of the macro. Assuming that the key-execute
character is "l (the default key-execute character), enter it by hol ding down the
Ctrl key and pressing the P key; this is shown in this example as | Ctrl | -R
Use the F2 key to correct any errors you make while entering the macro.
Since this example uses the host syntax of the HCSIZE command, be sure to
enter the command in uppercase letters as shown.
Ctrl -P Esc QA1 Ctrl -P
As you enter the macro, it is displayed on the screen like this:
"lEcQAIDl
5. Press the F1 key to end the macro definition.
6. Now, verify that the macro is correct by entering the following Setup
command:
MACROSTATUS 132
The value 132 is the macro number for the F5 key that was displayed earlier
(in Step 3 of this procedure). If you entered the macro definition correctly the
following message appears:
132 "DlEcQAIDl"
7. Press the Setup key again to take the terminal out of Setup.
41 Q5 OPERATORS 3-15
PROCEDURES
8. Press the F5 function key.
9. To see the effect of the macro, press the Setup key and enter:
STATUS HCSIZE
The terminal should display:
HCSIZE 1
10. If you want to save the macro in the terminal's nonvolatile memory, put the
terminal in Setup and enter:
NVSAVE
This simple example could be expanded to include all needed commands for
switching between different copy formats.
Creating a Copy Macro
Let's look at another way to use a macro to speed up a process that you may use
frequently. If a monochrome printer is attached to your terminal, you can route text
from the host directly to the printer by using the COPY command. This example
programs the F6 key to issue a COPY command. (During this type of copy, the
terminal does not process or change the text in any way; so if the printer requires
initialization commands, the host must send them.)
We'll again use the NVLEARN command to develop the macro. To create and use
the macro, follow these steps:
1. Put the terminal in Setup.
2. To start the programming process for a nonvolatile macro, enter this com-
mand:
NVLEARN
The terminal displays the following prompt:
Press the key to be defined :
3. Press the F6 function key The screen displays the number 733 (the macro
number for the F6 key) after the colon, and the following message appears on
the next line:
Enter definition. (F1 terminates definition, F2 deletes last character)
4. For this example, we'll use the host syntax of the COPY command, and again,
we'll assume that the key-execute character is "l (entered as |Ctrl| -P).
Enter the macro definition as follows:
Ctrl -P Esc JC3HO:2T03HC: Ctrl -P
As you enter it, the macro string is displayed on the screen like this:
DlEcJC3HO:2T03HC:Dl
5. To end the macro definition, press the F1 key
3-16 41 05 OPERATORS
PROCEDURES
6. Save the macro in nonvolatile memory by entering:
NVSAVE
7. Press the Setup key again to tal<e the terminal out of Setup.
8. Enter a command that instructs your host to send text to the terminal, but do
not press Return to terminate the command.
9. Press the F6 function l<ey This causes the terminal to execute the macro; then
press Return to terminate the command to the host.
The printer should begin to print whatever the host sent to the terminal. If you
do not have a printer connected to the terminal, it will display an error
message.
Deleting a Macro Definition
You can delete a macro and return the key to its default meaning with the LEARN
(or NVLEARN) command. For example, to delete the macro assigned to F6, put the
terminal in Setup and enter:
LEARN
In response to the prompt that LEARN displays, press the F6 key and then press
the F1 key The key is now back to its default meaning.

SETUP COMMAND
SUMMARY
Section 4
SETUP COMMAND SUMMARY
Table 4-1 on following pages lists all of the available Setup commands, listed and
arranged according to functional category. You will find this Table to be a
convenient, fast-access "memory prompter" for Setup command syntax and
function. The column headings and subheadings in Table 4-1 have the following
meanings:
Setup Name — The Setup command name as you actually enter it from the
l<ey board.
Parameters — Defines parameter functions. When the l<eywords under this column
are in boldface type, enter desired tceywords exactly as listed; otherwise enter
parameters as indicated in the example in the right column.
Defaults — The parameter value the terminal assumes when a value or l<eyword is
not explicitly entered. Blank entries under the Default column indicate there is no
default value for the parameter.
• Factory — refers to what keyword or value applies to a command as delivered
from the factory (The terminal reverts back to these factory command values or
keywords when you enter the FACTORY command.)
• Omitted — refers to the value or keyword that applies when you enter a
command but do not specify a keyword or value for the command parameter.
For example, the command LOCAL has the same effect as entering LOCAL
YES.
• Saved — Specifies whether or not a command's parameters can be saved with
an NVSAVE command. Those not saved either revert to the factory default or
have no power up value. (Some command specifications are not saved,
regardless of whether or not you follow the command entry with an NVSAVE
command.)
Description — Provides a brief summary description of the command's function.
Boldface items are examples of the Setup command syntax. For a more complete
discussion of commands, refer to the 4105 Computer Display Terminal
Programmers Reference l\/lanual.

Appendix A
INSTALLATION AND SETUP
Installation and setup of the 4105 Computer Display Terminal consists of the follow-
ing steps:
1 . Selecting an installation site.
2. Unpacking the terminal, checl<ing the accessories, and checking the voltage
settings.
3. Connecting the keyboard, host computer, and copier cables.
4. Running the terminal's Self Test diagnostic program.
5. Setting the terminal's communications parameters.
6. Testing the communications link between the terminal and host computer.
The rest of this appendix provides complete details for each of these steps. The
only tools you need to install your terminal are a box opener or knife and a small,
flat-bladed screwdriver.
SELECTING A SITE
The installation site you select for your terminal should meet the following
requirements.
Do not block air flow or cover the terminal's air vents in any way. This
could cause overheating and result in circuit damage.
• The site should provide enough room for adequate ventiiation and cable
routing. The terminal's air vents should be at least 2 inches (50 mm) from the
nearest wall or surface. Allow at least 3 inches (75 mm) at the rear of the
terminal for cable routing. Use Figure A-1 (next page) as a guide.
• The site should provide a stable environment. While the terminal is operat-
ing, the ambient temperature should stay within 50 to 104° F( + 10to +40°C).
Relative humidity should stay between and 75%. The terminal should not be
operated at an altitude greater than 10,000 ft (3050 m).
If any of these operating limits are exceeded, the terminal may not operate properly

UNPACKING THE TERMINAL
If the terminal has already been unpacked, begin at Step 7.
Before unpacking your terminal, carefully inspect the shipping carton for any signs
of damage. Report any damage to the carrier and contact your Tektronix sales
representative immediately
Retain all packing material in case you need to move or ship the terminal in the
future.
The terminal and all its standard and optional accessories are shipped in one car-
ton. Unpack the carton by following these steps and using Figure A-2 as a guide:
1 . Cut the strapping bands around the box, and lift off the entire top carton.
2. Remove the keyboard container and set it aside.
3. Remove the top packing material .
4. Remove the package containing the accessories and set it aside.
5. Lift the display unit out of the bottom pad and set it in the site previously
selected. Remove the keyboard from its carton and set it next to the display
unit.
6. Check the equipment you received against the accessories list in Section 1 . If
any items are missing, notify your Tektronix sales representative immediately

Both voltage selector switches on the rear panel of the display unit
must be set to the same voltage. If these two switches are not set the
same, or if they are set to the wrong voltage, it may cause serious
damage to the terminal's circuits.
7. Check the voltage selector switches on the rear panel of the terminal to ensure ^
they are set to the proper operating voltage, as determined by your ac power i
source. (For voltage ranges, refer to the Electrical Specifications table in
Appendix F). If the switches are not set to the proper voltage, move both t^
switches to the correct setting. Also check that you have received the correct
power cord. B
CONNECTING THE CABLES ■
Refer to Figure A-3 for the terminal's connector locations and make the following — i
connections:
1. Plug the keyboard cable into the K/SD connector. H
2. Connect the RS-232 cable connector to the terminal's COMPUTER port.
Secure the connector to the terminal with the two small connector screws. ]
Connect the other end of the cable either to a modem or directly to your host
computer. — i
3. If you are using a 4691 , 4692, or 4695 Color Graphics Copier, connect its cable
to the COPIER port on the rear panel of the terminal. Secure the cable con- ]
nector with the two clips attached to the port connector If you are connecting a
4695 Copier, you may also need to set the C and M/ADJUSr switches on the
rear panel of the 4695.
n
• Switch C tells the copier whether or not to ignore a Carriage Return from — i
the terminal. If the copier double-spaces lines of text or prints a new line of
text on top of the previous line, change the switch setting. , — .
• Switch M tells the copier whether to print in one direction or in two direc-
tions. Bidirectional printing is faster, but the dot alignment is better with — ,
one-directional printing. For highest quality copies, use the slower, one-
directional setting.
See Section 3 for the Setup commands you can use to get various types of
hard copies. — i
4. If you are using a Centronics-style printer instead of a color graphics copier,
connect its cable to the COPIER port on the rear panel of the display unit. See — i
Section 3 for a description of the Setup commands required to get copies on a
printer ^
5. Attach the female end of the ac power cord to the rear panel of the terminal,
and insert the male end into the ac power source. Then, apply power by press- ^
ing the POWER button on the front panel. ^

RUNNING SELF TEST
Self Test is a diagnostic program that checks if the terminal is operating correctly.
There are three levels of Self Test:
• Power-Up Self Test — executes automatically every time you turn on the
terminal, or press and release the RESET button, or enter a RESET command.
The Power-Up Self Test takes approximately 15 seconds to run. Except for a
brief flash on the Caps Lock key you normally won't be aware that Self Test is
running.
• £xtendedSetf7esf — checks terminal performance more thoroughly than
Power-Up Self Test . You should perform the Extended Self Test before using
the terminal for the first time.
• Adjustment Self Test — primarily intended as a diagnostic and maintenance tool
for the service technician, although some of its diagnostic menu selections are
useful to the terminal operator. You do not need to run the Adjustment Self Test
during installation.
Refer to Appendix E, Self Test Diagnostic Program, for instructions on running and
interpreting the Self Test programs.
After you have verified that the terminal is functioning properly, you can continue
with this installation procedure.

SETTING COMMUNICATIONS PARAMETERS
If this is the first time you have used a Tektronix terminal, or If you need instructions
for entering Setup commands, we suggest that you go back to Section 2 — Getting
Acquainted With Your Terminal, and complete those exercises before continuing on
with these setup procedures.
If you're already familiar with entering Setup commands, then continue on with the
following procedures.
The 41 05 Terminal Is already configured by the factory for typical RS-232 communi-
cations; however, you probably need to change some of the terminal parameters to
match the settings of your host computer
Table A-1 lists the commands you need to setup RS-232 communications with your
host computer The table has a column that lists the factory defaults In boldface
type, with other available settings In standard typeface. There is also an empty
column for you to list your host computer's settings.
To set the terminal's communications parameters, perform the following steps:
1 . Find out what parameter values are required or acceptable to your host com-
puter Consult your host computer manuals, your computer center staff, or
your system programmer for this Information. Then, fill in the host computer
settings In the last column of Table A-1 . (The 4105 Programmers Reference
Manual describes RS-232 communications concepts and gives details about
individual commands.)
2. Put the terminal In Setup and then enter the required communications com-
mands using Table A-1 as a guide. You only need to enter those commands
whose default settings are different than the host computer's requirements.
You can use the STATUS COMM command to list the terminal's communica-
tions settings. Check the list to make sure you entered the correct settings.
3. After you set the terminal's communication parameters you should save them
In nonvolatile memory by entering an NVSAVE command. This causes the
terminal to store the settings and remember them when the power Is off. Then,
every time you turn on the terminal. It automatically sets its communications
parameters to these saved values.
During future use of the terminal, you can temporarily change the communica-
tions settings without altering the nonvolatile (remembered) settings. The
terminal reverts back to the nonvolatile settings when you reset It or turn It off
and back on.

TESTING COMMUNICATIONS
After you have set the communications parameters, you are ready to log in to your
host computer. The procedure for logging in and running programs depends on
your particular computer. If you're not familiar with the procedure for your com-
puter, consult your computer center staff.
After you log in, enter some commands to the computer to verify the communica-
tions settings. Use commands that require a response from the host computer. For
example: request a help message, type a directory listing, create a file and edit it,
etc.
SELECTING A TERMINAL OPERATING MODE
The 4105 Terminal has four modes of operation to be compatible with various host
applications programs. These modes are; TEK (factory default mode), ANSI, EDIT,
and VT52.
You can put the terminal in Setup from any of the operating modes. When you're
through entering Setup commands and you exit Setup, the terminal goes back to
the operating mode it was in before you entered Setup.
You select the operating mode with the CODE command while the terminal is in
Setup. Here are the variations of the CODE command:
• To select TEK mode, which must be used with programs that use Tektronix
4100-style graphics and terminal control commands, enter:
CODE TEK
• To select ANSI mode, which is compatible with most programs that use the
standard ANSI X3.64 text editing commands, enter:
CODE ANSI
• To select EDIT mode, which is a special application of ANSI mode similar to that
used in VT1 00 terminals, enter:
CODE EDIT
• To select VT52 mode, which makes the terminal compatible with host programs
that use VT52-style commands, enter:
CODE VT52

Appendix C
KEYBOARD MACROS AND CHARACTER CODES
Eight different character sets are available on the 4105 terminal. Six character sets
support language-dependent keyboards. Two additional character sets provide
supplementary symbols and rulings characters.
Each optional, language dependent keyboard has a character set that corresponds
to its own special characters. Plugging a keyboard into the terminal automatically
selects the appropriate character set as the default character set. For example, the
North American keyboard selects the ASCII character set, while the Option 4G
keyboard selects the German character set.
You can also use the SELECTCHARSET command to select a different character
set, regardless of which keyboard you are using. To do this, enter the SELECT-
CHARSET command and specify GO (G zero) as the set selector for the first param-
eter and one of the values from Table C-1 for the second parameter.
For example, the following command selects the United Kingdom character set:
SELECTCHARSET GO,A
Since Setup always uses ASCII characters, you won't see the results of this com-
mand until you exit Setup. For more information about the SELECTCHARSET
command, refer to the SCS (Set Character Set) command description in the 4705
Programmers Reference Manual.

ROM REPLACEMENT PROCEDURE
The terminal contains several ROMs (read-only memory) tliat contain the internal
programming which controls the terminal. If updates become available, these
ROMs can be replaced by an operator without the aid of a service technician. The
only tool required for this procedure is a small flat-bladed screwdriver.
To replace the ROMs:
1 . Turn the terminal off and wait several minutes for it to cool.
2. Remove the ROM access door located at the rear of the terminal (Figure
D-1 a — next page). Remove the door by pulling it out from the top, then set it
aside. The ROMs are now exposed.
S CAUTION <
The terminal's ROMs and some of the other components are highly
sensitive to electrostatic discharge. Before touching the ROMs,
remove static discharge from yourself by touching the silver metal
backplate on the terminal.
NOTE
The first time a ROM is replaced it may be difficult to remove from the
socket. With gentle pressure, however, the ROM should come free.
3. Remove each ROM to be replaced. Use the screwdriver to pry the top and
bottom of the ROM from its holder (Figure D-1 b — next page). Place the old
ROMs in a safe location until operation of the new ROMs has been verified.
CAUTION
Make sure that the new ROMs are installed in the proper sockets. The
two right-most ROMs must be properly installed to run Self Test. Self
Test will identify bad positioning of any other ROMs.
Install the new ROMs. Install each ROM in the proper socket (each ROM is
labeled by a component number; match this number to the number on the
circuit board). The ROMs are keyed so they cannot be installed upside down.
Lock each ROM in place by pushing it in firmly

ROM REPLACEMENT
Figure D-1 . Opening The ROiU Access Door and Removing tlie ROMs.
5. Reinstall the ROM access door. Place the bottom of the door in the chassis
first, then lock the door in place by pressing it in firmly on the top.
6. Power up the terminal. The power-up self test will verify correct ROM installa-
tion and proper operation.
This completes the ROM replacement procedure. Your terminal is now ready for
use with its new firmware.

SELF TEST DIAGNOSTIC PROGRAM
DESCRIPTION
PURPOSE
The Self Test diagnostic program is a part of the terminal's circuitry which allows
the terminal to test itself and report any errors. Error messages identify the proba-
ble source of the problem.
If a Self Test error message appears on the display, write it down. When you call the
service center, these error messages will help the service technician diagnose the
problem more quickly
LEVELS OF SELF TEST
There are three levels of Self Test. They are:
Power-Up Self Test — Runs automatically every time the terminal is turned on or
reset. It performs a quick check of terminal circuitry before allowing the terminal to
be used. Power-Up Self Test takes approximately 15 seconds to complete.
Extended Self Test — Contains all the tests performed by Power-Up Self Test, plus
more extensive tests. Extended Self Test takes about 4 minutes to complete.
Adjustment Self Test — Displays a menu of tests and patterns. Items may be
selected to check or adjust specific parts of the terminal.
Figure E-1 illustrates how the three levels of Self Test are related.
Runs automatically
from POWER button,
or press RESET.
Press SELF TEST
and RESET buttons.

ERROR REPORTING AND OPERATOR INTERACTION "
■
Error Reporting ^
Self Test can report an error in three ways: (1 ) write a message on the screen, — i
(2) ring the terminal's bell twice, or (3) light the small LED display on the Caps Lock
key r-^
All written error messages begin with the words Self Test Error. If this appears on
the screen, write down the message before calling the service center. m
NOTE
If the keyboard is not plugged into the terminal, the bell does not ring;
but an error message can still be displayed on the screen.
If Self Test detects an error, the terminal's bell rings twice. (An error message is
also written on the screen, if possible).
If the light on the Caps Lock key remains on during Self Test, the keyboard test
failed.
Operator Interaction ^
When Self Test requires operator interaction, it rings the bell once. Normally, this is ■ — i
when a menu is displayed and you must select an item. Only Extended and Adjust-
ment Self Tests display menus. ^

SELF TEST
POWER-UP SELF TEST
Power-Up Self Test runs every time you turn on the terminal or push the RESET
button. The test checks the keyboard first (if it is connected), then it checks the
circuitry in the display unit. The only indication that the test is running is one brief
flash of the LED in the Caps Lock key
' If Power-Up Self Test does not detect any errors, the terminal displays a blinking
underline cursor on the screen when the test is complete.
If the keyboard test finds an error, the Caps Lock light stays on and the bell rings
twice. It may also write a message on the screen.
If Self Test finds a problem in the display unit, it writes a message on the screen
and rings the bell twice. (If no message appears, try turning up the Brightness
knob.)
POWER-UP SELF TEST ERRORS
If a Self Test error appears when you turn on the terminal, do the following:
1. Turn the terminal off and wait about ISseconds, then turn it back on. If the
terminal powers up again with no Self Test error, it is operating normally
2. If a Self Test error appears on the second power-up, note the message:
a. If the message includes the words Keyboard Failure or Not Attached,
— check the keyboard cable connection on the rear of the terminal.
b. If the message includes the words Uxxx ROM is Wrong Part, go to Appen-
— dix D of this manual and follow the procedures for opening the ROM
access door.
If the ROMS are not properly installed, follow the procedures in Appendix
D to remove and then reinstall them in their proper locations.
c. If the message includes the words Nonvolatile Parameters Failure —
Defaults Reset, you may have to reset some operating parameters before
— running an applications program. Consult the communications command
table in Appendix A of this manual for the proper settings.
If any other messages appear, write them down and call your Tektronix
service center. The service technician may ask you to remove the ROM
— access door and note the status of three LED indicator lights just below
the ROMS.

COLOR STANDARD
OVERVIEW
The world of color is filled with ambiguous terminology, i.e. intensity, purity, value,
etc. Many color users feel that "color theory" is a prerequisite to operating color
systems; T.V., Videotaping, Photography, Computer Graphics.
To end this confusion, Tektronix has developed a color language and
function based on human engineering, rather than machine engineering. Below is
a description of this sytem, which will provide a clear and concise means for
understanding how color is defined and how our syntax was derived.
COLOR CONCEPTS
Color selection is specified by hue, lightness and saturation which is the HLS
method. The definitions are as follows:
Hue: The characteristic associated with a color name such as red, yellow,
green, blue, etc. Hue is a gradation of color advanced by degrees,
thus represented as an angle from to 360.
Lightness: The characteristic that allows the color to be ranked on a scale from
dark to fight. Lightness is expressed as a parameter ranging from to
1 00% with black being 0% (bottom of cone) and white being 1 00%
(top of cone).
Saturation: The characteristic which describes the extent to which a color differs
from a gray of the same lightness. Saturation is expressed as
percentage, ranging from 0% (maximum white content at that
lightness level) to 1 00% (fully saturated).
Geometrically, colors can be described in terms of a double cone. Variations in
lightness are represented along the axis, with white at the apex of the cone and
black at the opposite apex. Variations in saturation are represented by radial
distances from the lightness axis, in constant lightness planes. Hue is represented
as an angular quantity from a known reference point.
